The description says ideal for flat yards. My yard is on an incline of about 20 percent, will it still work?

Our yard is fairly flat so cannot answer with certainty. I'd assume the placement of the unit would be the thing, even if you had to place it on the ground. It would also depend on the amount of incline.

Our driveway drops off to the field where our dog did his business and we didn't have any problems with the fence along that area.

30 inches I've told several other potential customers about this item. I won't advise buying this Yard Machine due to safety issues. It's very light in the front and has flipped upside down on me twice. I wasn't injured either time. The mower works fine if you only use it on level surfaces. My advice is not to buy this Yard Machine, but to each their own.

I have some slightly uneven areas in the back yard and it's not a problem cutting unless I let the grass grow a little too thick and have to push it up the incline.

my property is not flat either and it works great. The grade of the land won't have much affect. The sprinkler is quite heavy and has some pretty good teeth on the wheels. What will have more impact is the amount of hose it starts to drag behind after a couple hours.

The site is sloped but I have been able to rack the slide off the site. It's not ideal but it will work.

I think it depends on the angle, I have a 30 degree slope and it's great. Unless you have a super steep pitch you should be good.

Funny you should ask! 75% of what I planted with this was on a slope. Yes it works just fine. It worked best for me to work "down" slope as it was easier for me to balance myself. Please try it, you won't be sorry! Good luck

Have not used it on much uneven ground it will function on unlevel ground ok by just turning the legs to fit terrain. seems to function as well as the more costly ones.

I have only used it where it is fairly flat, so I really don't know. I will say that I have acquired a 150 ft hose as it occasionally would get hung up on a hose connection, particularly on a curve. It is capable of dragging even more than 150 feet of hose so I suspect it would go up an incline, but one might have to limit the length go the run (reduce the amount of hose it drags). Also I'm sure it would depend in part on the water pressure--I have a well and the water pressure is about 65 lb/sq inch. I love the sprinkler!

No. Not with that much to tend to. My yard area is only 20 ft x 50. Works great for me.

We don't have a hill in our backyard. I would call it a modest slope. I'm guessing it would work well on a flat lawn though, especially if you have room to get a good running start. Some of the smaller kids didn't quite make it to the end of the slide but the kids around ages 11 - 12 had no problem doing so. Hope that helps.

I use my lawn cart on a long sidewalk. I couldn't really say if it would work well on inclines or bumps. I've used it on the lawn by the sidewalk and it's fairly manageable. I'd think something sturdy with bigger wheels would be more appropriate. Hope that is helpful.

A flat yard is helpful, although ours slopes a bit. A slight slope is actually kind of helpful, as you can direct the water out of the pool in the direction of the slope when it's time to put the pool away. As for it impacting the enjoyment of the pool, it doesn't, as you simply have a slightly fuller side than the other. We've now had two months with our pool and have used it 10 times or so, and it's durable and fabulous. We're very happy with our purchase.

I have never encountered a 20 to 30 degree slope when using it. If I did, I would probably climb the hill in a 'switch-back' manner. If the machine became unstable, possibly rolling back down the hill, I'd look for a different piece of equipment. You could also try 'backing up the hill' in reverse, then 'mowing' on the way back down the hill, also referred to as 'yo-yoing'. Whatever, DO NOT let that thing roll over onto you. Good luck. Keep us guys posted on your dilemna ... :)

It's a straight bench it won't do a incline or decline unless you prop it up with something. It is just a flat bench, the legs only have two positions and that's either folded or down.

Says it weighs about 120. It has a stand in front and handle and wheels in back. So you tip it back and it is really easy to move. I don't think you should have a problem on a slight incline. The driveway into my garage has dropped a inch or more and I have no problem getting into the garage. Of course I am going backwards to get in. It is easy to use and so far I am very pleased with it.

Amber, not if it's a thick pile. It depends on your grass and if your lawn is even. I have a slight bank and it doesn't work as well than if the yard is perfectly flat. Don't know if this helps you or not?
